As you know, at Modern Weddings Hawaiʻi, we’re all about the ‘boutique’, the ‘exclusive’, the ‘intimate’, the ‘private’, the ‘secluded,’ and our list goes on…But, every so often we come across a gem that doesn’t necessarily fit our standard criteria and we’re compelled to share the good word.

King Kamehameha’s Kona Beach Hotel on Hawaiʻi Island, or the Big Island as locals know it, is one such gem.

Situated in the heart of Kailua-Kona, the sprawling 13-acre oceanfront property is steeped in Hawaiian history located at the site that was the former residence of King Kamehameha The Great.

There’s the backdrop of the Hualalai Mountains and the immaculately pristine Kailua Bay, but what we love most is that the hotel offers a blank canvas to create the wedding of your dreams.

There are so many different spaces to choose from, both indoor and outdoor, and what’s awesome, is that the hotel doesn’t come with the hefty price tag you’d expect from an oceanfront Hawaiʻi destination.

For brides on a budget, but still dreaming of their perfect Hawaiʻi wedding, we recommend you explore the range of options at King Kamehameha’s Kona Beach Hotel.
